The response of a large CsI (TI) detector to light particles and heavy ions in the intermediate energy range
Résumé
Particle dependent response of a CsI(Tl) scintillation detector with an entrance surface of 314 cm2 has been investigated using a secondary beam facility at the energy range from 2 to 77 MeV/A. The mass and charge identification of particles with Z = 1-18 has been performed by means of time-of-flight and energy measurements. The dependence of light output on E, Z and A has been studied. Using a pulse shape analysis possibility to identify the masses of momentum separated particles with charges of Z = 1-7 is presented.
